Fight Details

Canelo Alvarez and Jaime Munguia have officially agreed to face off on May 4th at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, in a highly anticipated match for Alvarez's undisputed super middleweight championship. This bout represents a significant development for both fighters, especially after Alvarez ended his relationship with Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) with two fights left on their three-fight agreement signed the previous year.

The fight marks a notable moment for PBC as it secures Alvarez, boxing's biggest star, for one of its marquee pay-per-view events in collaboration with Amazon's Prime Video, despite DAZN's exclusive deal with Golden Boy Promotions, which will also broadcast the event. Munguia, a 27-year-old Mexican fighter with an impressive record, comes into this fight following a triumphant ninth-round TKO victory over John Ryder. Trained by Freddie Roach, Munguia has shown considerable improvement, positioning this bout as Alvarez's first against a Mexican opponent since Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in 2017.

This fight was settled upon after negotiations for a championship defense against Jermall Charlo fell through, prompting Alvarez to explore other options. Alvarez had initially discussed returning to DAZN for fights against Munguia and Edgar Berlanga. However, as discussions stalled, Alvarez revisited negotiations with PBC, leading to the finalized deal with Munguia.

Alvarez, a four-division world champion and ESPN's No. 4 pound-for-pound boxer, has been a dominant force in the sport, boasting victories over Gennadiy Golovkin and a unanimous decision win over Jermell Charlo in his PBC debut. Despite the initial plan for a fight against Jermall Charlo, Alvarez now sets his sights on Munguia, redirecting attention from potential bouts against other high-profile fighters like David Benavidez, who has publicly expressed his desire for a match against Alvarez.

As the boxing world anticipates this matchup, Alvarez continues to solidify his status as the sport's top attraction, promising a lucrative and exciting contest against Munguia.

The co-main event pits Mario “El Azteca” Barrios (28-2, 18 KOs) against Argentine power-puncher Fabián “TNT” Maidana (22-2, 16 KOs) in a defense of his Interim WBC Welterweight Title. Barrios, a former world champion at 140 pounds, has proven himself as a serious contender in the welterweight division. His aggressive approach and resilience were notably displayed in his victory over Yordenis Ugas, and he's prepared to bring the same intensity against Maidana, who aims to continue his family's legacy of toughness and glory by winning the title.

Adding to the spectacle, former world champion Brandon “The Heartbreaker” Figueroa (24-1-1, 18 KOs) will defend his Interim WBC Featherweight Title against former 122-pound world champion Jessie Magdaleno (29-2, 18 KOs). Figueroa, celebrated for his relentless pressure and dynamism, is set against Magdaleno, a Las Vegas native eager to redeem his recent loss and reclaim his position as a world champion. The matchup is expected to be an electrifying battle between two fighters with much to prove.
